Mells that is a good question.... I'm not sure the answer. The baby is breech right now so I imagine the ob would get me into the or for a section. I'm supposed to call right away with any contractions. The ob doesn't want me to have contractions b/c I'm at risk for uterine rupture. I have an appt Thursday I'll have to ask.
Damn 21 lbs at 31 wks w/ twins???? Eek! I'm up about 23-25 lbs at 35 weeks.. I feel huge lol.
Brandy I did call the other day b/c my BH really picked up, woke me upstairs night, and more than 4 per hr all day the following day... They basically blew me off and I had to beg the nurse to talk to my dr.. She spoke to one of the obs who said if it doesn't stop to call back later. Luckily it did but it was super annoying and frustrating b/c I was very ubconfortable.
Sandy how are you?

Mells your pre e came out of the blue late in pg right? Did you just all the sudden swell up like a hot air balloon?
Just nosey because I had only gained at the most 21lbs by week 31. The minute I noticed something was swelling I was constantly weighing so I could show the doctors there was a dramatic difference over a small time frame. Well before and while in the hospital I swelled so bad I couldn't even bend my knees, my ankles had fat rolls, and I was getting almost a second bump in lower abdomen from water. I gained 29lbs of water in 6 days!
I still feel awful but have Lost about 14 lbs of the water in the last couple days. I am hoping for more to come off babies get here.. If not will it come off quickly after the birth?

Brandy, my pre e did come late in pregnancy. Probably the last couple of weeks. I was going for my appts weekly, and they didn't mention my weight gain, but did say my BP was high and I had protein in my urine. That is what triggered them doing the 24 hr urine test which came back extremely high, and them sending me immediately to deliver. After delivery I was given lasiks (which are like diuretics) to help get rid of the fluid. I never paid much attention to my weight gain bc the docs always said it was ok. I know in the end it did go up quickly, and I gained probably close to 60 lbs total. By the first week after delivery I lost 50 lbs and as of yesterday I was back to my pre pregancy weight. I still have some to lose since I gained weight on the hormones when I was doing IVF. I'm happy to say I'm in my regular clothes and all of my swelling is pvirtually gone. Still can't get my wedding ring on yetMy BP is coming down and I actually feel pretty darn good.
